When I set adapter 2 (RTL2832) DVB-T: No source and adapter 1 (Panasonic MN88473) DVB-C: No source and DVB-T2: Automatischer Suchlauf, then only DVB-T channels are found. Therewhile I can use $ dvb-fe-tool -a0 -f1 --get and I see that the frequency changes and that it is always in DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBT. But it uses the correct frontend (Panasonic MN88473) as far as I can see. When I set adapter 2 (RTL2832) DVB-T: Automatischer Suchlauf and adapter 1 (Panasonic MN88473) DVB-C: No source and DVB-T2: No source, then again only DVB-T channels are found. Therewhile I can use $ dvb-fe-tool -a0 -f0 --get and I see that the frequency changes and that it is always in DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBT. But this one of course can only do DVB-T only, as it is the wrong frontend (RTL2832). So I think that kaffeine uses the correctly the Panasonic MN88473, but fails to search for DVB-T2 channels. May there be some information missing in the frequency table for scanning? Is the frequency table used actually, if I say "Automatischer Suchlauf"? > If this works, I'll take a look at the code and seek for a solution to do it > automatically, but you'll likely need to test such patch, as I guess I don't > have any RTL-based device with an extra DVB-T2 frontend. I'd like to test patches. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
